An anthology of five different cab drivers in five American and European cities and their remarkable fares on the same eventful night.
Jim Jarmusch is pretty much the ultimate in independent filmmakers. He has this interesting quality about him, where he has continued to make great films over the last couple decades, has worked with everyone you could ever want to work with, and still maintains a status that is slightly shy of mainstream. The average film watcher would not know his name or almost any of his movies, but the more discriminate film lover would go out of their way to see them all.
This is a great film in that it is just so simple. Most of the movie is nothing more than a cab driver and their fare having a conversation. Sometimes this is all you need to make a great picture, just a well-written script.
